Where I add value
I combine an attacker’s curiosity with a builder’s understanding of how web applications fit together.
Web security testing
Investigating SQL injection, XSS, authentication flaws and other issues aligned with the OWASP Top 10.
Web development
Building responsive interfaces and database-backed experiences with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL.
Security documentation
Turning technical findings into clear reports with practical remediation recommendations.
Curious by nature.
Methodical by practice.
I’m a Computer Science student at Superior University in Lahore with a strong interest in cybersecurity and web development. My work spans security labs, vulnerability research, CTF challenges and hands-on application testing.
I enjoy moving between two perspectives: understanding how a system should work, then testing how it behaves when assumptions fail.
